Chapter 19
1
I javiše Joavu: Evo car plače i tuži za Avesalomom.
2
I pobeda onog dana pretvori se u žalost svemu narodu, jer narod ču u onaj dan gde govore: Žali car sina svog.
3
I narod se u onaj dan krio ulazeći u grad kao što se krije narod koji se stidi kad pobegne iz boja.
4
A car pokri lice svoje; i vikaše glasno: Sine moj Avesalome! Avesalome sine moj, sine moj!
5
Tada uđe Joav k caru u kuću, i reče: Posramio si danas sve sluge svoje, koje ti danas dušu sačuvaše, i sinovima tvojim i kćerima tvojim i ženama tvojim i inočama tvojim.
6
Jer ljubiš one koji mrze na te, a mrziš na one koji te ljube; jer si pokazao danas da ne mariš za vojvode i za sluge; i vidim danas da bi ti milo bilo da je Avesalom živ, a mi svi da smo izginuli.
7
Zato ustani sada, i iziđi i progovori lepo slugama svojim; jer zaklinjem se Gospodom, ako ne iziđeš, neće nijedan ostati kod tebe ovu noć, i to će biti gore po te negoli sva zla koja su te snalazila od mladosti tvoje do sada.
8
Tada usta car, i sede na vratima; i kazaše svemu narodu govoreći: Evo, sedi car na vratima. I dođe sav narod pred cara. Ali Izrailjci behu pobegli, svak u svoj šator.
9
I sav se narod svađaše među sobom po svim plemenima Izrailjevim govoreći: Car nas je izbavio iz ruku neprijatelja naših, i izbavio nas je iz ruku filistejskih; a sada je pobegao iz zemlje od Avesaloma.
10
Avesalom pak, kog pomazasmo za cara nad sobom, pogibe u boju. Sada dakle zašto oklevate te ne dovedete natrag cara?
11
Zato car David posla k Sadoku i Avijataru sveštenicima i poruči: Govorite starešinama Judinim i recite: Zašto vi da budete poslednji koji će cara natrag dovesti u kuću njegovu? Jer govor svega Izrailja dođe do cara u kuću njegovu.
12
Vi ste moja braća, vi ste kost moja i telo moje. Zašto biste dakle bili poslednji koji će natrag dovesti cara?
13
Recite i Amasi: Nisi li kost moja i telo moje? Bog neka mi učini tako i tako neka doda, ako mi ne budeš vojvoda dok si živ namesto Joava.
14
I skloni srca svih ljudi od roda Judina kao jednog čoveka, te poslaše k caru govoreći: Vrati se sa svim slugama svojim.
15
I tako se car vrati, i dođe do Jordana; a Juda dođe do Galgala da srete cara i da ga prevede preko Jordana.
16
Pohita i Simej, sin Girin, od Venijamina, koji beše iz Vaurima, i siđe s ljudima roda Judinog na susret caru Davidu;
17
i hiljadu ljudi beše s njim od roda Venijaminovog; takođe i Siva sluga doma Saulovog s petnaest sinova svojih i dvadeset sluga svojih; i pređoše preko Jordana pred cara.
18
Preturiše i lađu da prevezu čeljad carevu i da učine šta bi mu bilo ugodno. A Simej, sin Girin, pade pred carem, kad htede da pređe preko Jordana,
19
i reče caru: Ne primi mi bezakonja, gospodaru moj, i ne pominji pakosti koju je učinio sluga tvoj u onaj dan kad je car gospodar moj izašao iz Jerusalima; neka car ne misli o tome.
20
Jer sluga tvoj vidi da je zgrešio; i evo došao sam danas prvi iz svega doma Josifovog da sretnem cara, gospodara svog.
21
Ali odgovori Avisaj sin Serujin i reče: Eda li toga radi neće poginuti Simej što je psovao pomazanika Gospodnjeg?
22
A David reče: Šta je vama do mene, sinovi Serujini, te ste mi danas protivnici? Zar će danas ko poginuti u Izrailju, jer zar ne znam da sam danas postao car nad Izrailjem?
23
I reče car Simeju: Nećeš poginuti. I zakle mu se car.
24
Tako i Mefivostej, sin Saulov, dođe caru na susret; on, pak, ne opra nogu svojih, niti brade svoje očešlja, ni opra haljine svoje od onog dana kad otide car do dana kad se vrati s mirom.
25
I srete cara kad se vraćaše u Jerusalim; i reče mu car: Zašto ne pođe sa mnom, Mefivosteju?
26
A on reče: Caru gospodaru moj, prevari me sluga moj; jer sluga tvoj reče: Osedlaću sebi magarca i uzjahaću ga i poći ću s carem; jer je hrom sluga tvoj.
27
I on opade slugu tvog kod gospodara mog cara; ali je car gospodar moj kao anđeo Božji; zato čini šta ti je drago.
28
Jer sav dom oca mog behu ljudi koji zaslužiše smrt pred carem gospodarem mojim, a ti posadi slugu svog među one koji jedu za stolom tvojim, pa kako imaš još pravo, i kako se mogu još tužiti caru?
29
A car mu reče: Šta bi mi više govorio? Kazao sam: Ti i Siva podelite njivu.
30
A Mefivostej reče caru: Neka uzme sve, kad se car gospodar moj vratio na miru u dom svoj.
31
I Varzelaj od Galada dođe iz Rogelima, i pođe s carem preko Jordana da ga prati preko Jordana.
32
A beše Varzelaj vrlo star, beše mu osamdeset godina, i hranjaše cara dok beše u Mahanajimu, jer beše vrlo bogat čovek.
33
I reče car Varzelaju: Hajde sa mnom; ja ću te hraniti kod sebe u Jerusalimu.
34
Ali Varzelaj reče caru: Koliko ima veka mog, da idem s carem u Jerusalim?
35
Ima mi danas osamdeset godina; mogu li raspoznavati dobro i zlo? Može li sluga tvoj kusom razlikovati šta će jesti i šta će piti? Mogu li jošte slušati glas pevačima i pevačicama? I zašto bi sluga tvoj još bio na tegotu caru, gospodaru mom?
36
Malo će proći sluga tvoj preko Jordana s carem; a zašto bi mi car tako naplatio?
37
Neka se sluga tvoj vrati, da umrem u svom gradu kod groba oca svog i matere svoje. Nego evo, sluga tvoj Himam neka ide s carem gospodarem mojim, i učini njemu šta ti bude drago.
38
A car reče: Neka ide sa mnom Himam; ja ću mu učiniti šta bude tebi drago, i šta god zaišteš u mene, sve ću ti učiniti.
39
I kad pređe sav narod preko Jordana i car pređe, celiva car Varzelaja i blagoslovi ga, i on se vrati u mesto svoje.
40
Otuda car otide u Galgal, i Himam otide s njim. I tako sav narod Judin doprati cara, i polovina naroda Izrailjevog.
41
A gle, svi ljudi Izrailjci dođoše k caru i rekoše mu: Zašto te ukradoše braća naša, ljudi Judini, i prevedoše preko Jordana cara i dom njegov i sve ljude Davidove s njim?
42
A svi ljudi od Jude odgovoriše ljudima od Izrailja: Jer je car nama rod; pa što se srdite toga radi? Jesmo li šta pojeli caru? Je li nas darom darivao?
43
Tada odgovoriše ljudi od Izrailja ljudima od Jude, i rekoše: Mi imamo deset delova u cara, i Davidu smo više nego vi; zašto dakle ne mariste za nas? Nismo li mi prvi govorili da dovedemo natrag cara svog? Ali beseda ljudi od Jude beše tvrđa od besede ljudi od Izrailja.
2 Samuel
Chapter 19
1
And it was told Joab, Behold, the king weepeth and mourneth for Absalom.
2
And the victory that day was turned into mourning unto all the people: for the people heard say that day how the king was grieved for his son.
3
And the people gat them by stealth that day into the city, as people being ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
4
But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!
5
And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast shamed this day the faces of all thy servants, which this day have saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives, and the lives of thy concubines;
6
In that thou lovest thine enemies, and hatest thy friends. For thou hast declared this day, that thou regardest neither princes nor servants: for this day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased thee well.
7
Now therefore arise, go forth, and speak comfortably unto thy servants: for I swear by the LORD, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night: and that will be worse unto thee than all the evil that befell thee from thy youth until now.
8
Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told unto all the people, saying, Behold, the king doth sit in the gate. And all the people came before the king: for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9
¶ And all the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, The king saved us out of the hand of our enemies, and he delivered us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he is fled out of the land for Absalom.
10
And Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?
11
¶ And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, even to his house.
12
Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are ye the last to bring back the king?
13
And say ye to Amasa, Art thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
14
And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return thou, and all thy servants.
15
So the king returned, and came to Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to conduct the king over Jordan.
16
¶ And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which was of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.
17
And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over Jordan before the king.
18
And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come over Jordan;
19
And said unto the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity unto me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
20
For thy servant doth know that I have sinned: therefore, behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.
21
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD’s anointed?
22
And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?
23
Therefore the king said unto Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king sware unto him.
24
¶ And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king, and had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came again in peace.
25
And it came to pass, when he was come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said unto him, Wherefore wentest not thou with me, Mephibosheth?
26
And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; because thy servant is lame.
27
And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God: do therefore what is good in thine eyes.
28
For all of my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king: yet didst thou set thy servant among them that did eat at thine own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?
29
And the king said unto him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land.
30
And Mephibosheth said unto the king, Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord the king is come again in peace unto his own house.
31
¶ And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim, and went over Jordan with the king, to conduct him over Jordan.
32
Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.
33
And the king said unto Barzillai, Come thou over with me, and I will feed thee with me in Jerusalem.
34
And Barzillai said unto the king, How long have I to live, that I should go up with the king unto Jerusalem?
35
I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?
36
Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why should the king recompense it me with such a reward?
37
Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.
38
And the king answered, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto thee: and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee.
39
And all the people went over Jordan. And when the king was come over, the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned unto his own place.
40
Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him: and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel.
41
¶ And, behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said unto the king, Why have our brethren the men of Judah stolen thee away, and have brought the king, and his household, and all David’s men with him, over Jordan?
42
And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to us: wherefore then be ye angry for this matter? have we eaten at all of the king’s cost? or hath he given us any gift?
43
And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more right in David than ye: why then did ye despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king? And the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
